Ru's new show, 'Drag University'

[anansie-s.livejournal.com]

Ru is working on a new reality show, to start airing in June this year on Logo.

She Better Work: RuPaul on Queens Having Kids, the Wisdom of Cher and Expanding Her Drag Empire

Extract: "We do have another show coming up. It’s called RuPaul’s Drag University which starts filming in March. The show invites real women to the Drag University — Drag U. — and they are not made over, but they undergo a psychological evaluation to determine when they gave up on themselves. Drag U. teaches them how to own their power and to stop playing small. Ultimately, they graduate at the end of the show with their newly empowered, made-over self. The professors at Drag U. are some of the kids from Drag Race and also some of the drag legends. I think everybody could learn from the kind of self-reinvention that drag teaches. Everyone could reemerge and reinvent themselves through the process, but once it’s done, you have to maintain it (...) I am, of course, the Dean of the University."

In which Pandora has her name on her ass and Jujubee cries like a homesick kid wanting to leave summer camp. Raven is still a jealous bitch. 

Talk about here 8D 

I feel like Ru's hair deserves a post of its own y/n?

This right here is the main reason I love the themed episodes so much: Ru's hair and outfits. Especially his mentoring-time outfits.

Here is Ru with tonight's guest judge, Jackie Collins.

I'm not exactly sure what to make of this particular dress and wig, though.

IMO Ru's best most fun outfits so far this season:
